QuantLase Laboratory is a research and innovation laboratory focused on developing sustainable solutions. They have introduced a scientific breakthrough of a rapid coronavirus laser testing technology, which uses an appealing and user-friendly technique called Diffractive Phase Interferometry (DPI). Compared to other tests, DPI can give a signature of the infection within a few seconds. The research is solidly based on deformational changes in the virus-infected blood cell structure.
